Intense ruby red with a sparkling centre. Suculé immediately shows that it wants to be more than a classic Barbera. The fragrance caresses the senses with ripe sour cherry, blackberry, rose petals and a fine hint of vanilla – a complex, inviting bouquet. Velvety and dense on the palate and perfectly balanced: juicy red fruit meets a harmonious structure, a supporting sweetness and a subtle hint of minerality on the finish. Maturation for 18 months in barriques ensures velvety depth and length. A powerful but elegantly interwoven Barbera with format and accessibility. SUPERIORE.DE

"Deep, dark ruby red colour. Nose of precious wood, pickled cherries and ripe wild berry fruit, echoes of cranberries and candle wax. Initially very fruity and juicy on the palate, but also shows a rich woody flavour with plenty of muscle on the finish, powerful, can age well." Falstaff

"Fresh and focused, this wine shows a vibrant core of dark and blue fruits, complemented by notes of spice and damp earth. Medium to full-bodied, with a polished texture and bright acidity, it shows a clear, compact shape that leads to a lingering, precise finish." James Suckling
